On June 27, Red Hat is hosting a webinar: The future of telecommunications is open—Red Hat Summit 2018 highlights.

Susan James, Red Hat senior director of telecommunications strategy, and top Red Hat telecommunications technologists will discuss how service providers are under increasing pressure to transform their networks and their customer experience and ways they can create new opportunities with open technologies, and with advancements like 5G and Internet of Things (IoT).

The webinar will highlight top Red Hat Summit session picks for service providers from available recordings and slide presentations:

Open infrastructure for 5G networks

Azhar Sayeed, chief architect, telecom, Red Hat

NFV go-live, but where are my containers?

NFV movement into production is accelerating. Service providers are increasing their capacity and managing hardware obsolescence with NFV, putting an end to legacy hardware deployments.
